Salt Lake City - FUSION CORE SOLUTION (FCS), a public safety and
homeland security solution jointly developed by ESRI and MICROSOFT,
recently had its first full-scale deployment in Salt Lake City at the
UTAH STATEWIDE INFORMATION & ANALYSIS CENTER (SIAC). Already FCS is
at work enhancing Utah's security through collaborative
intelligence, and eventually it will be available to more than 180 local
law enforcement agencies. SIAC is a public safety partnership designed
to collect, analyze and disseminate intelligence to enhance public
safety. The impetus to build the SIAC stemmed from the state's need
to identify growing threats posed by organized crime, gangs, drug
trafficking organizations and potential terrorists.
